We use the NIST CSF because. among all the frameworks, it is proven, the most respected and the national standard.

The fact that it was developed by the US Federal Government, and not a vendor or industry group with their own agendas, means that it is neutral in a way we find comforting.

Senior Associate John Sebes is our domain expert. John has been a Principal Investigator in R&D projects, ranging from DARPA cyber security projects performed in the pre-Web era, to recent work with DHS on public (open source) security technology.

We recommend that you read the Pythia Cyber CSF primer for executives first, unless you are already familiar with the NIST CSF.
